Husker receives high marks in recent Mock Draft

A former Husker received high marks in a recent NFL mock draft.

Mel Kiper Jr has been covering the draft every year since 1984 and this year is no different. He recently released his “new predictions for top 64 picks in Rounds 1 and 2” and former Husker Cam Taylor-Britt was named on that list. The cornerback was projected to be taken with the 62nd pick in the second round by the San Fransisco 49ers. Taylor-Britt has impressed in his last several workouts and word is he’s sliding up multiple team’s draft boards. Kiper says “Taylor-Britt makes sense because he has some raw tools with which to work and has the skill set to play multiple spots.” In 2021, he started 12 games, 11 pass breakups and one interception for Nebraska. Will it happen, time will tell and the answers are just days away
